I'm afraid it's not "more fancy". It's under development, and many aspects need improvement. But you can try it so that you have your own opinion. > I have not found any documentation on it.

Please avoid asking questions that can only have subjective answers, especially if you are asking somebody participating in the development. I think if you are looking only to get the best software right now without giving anything in return, grub2 is not for you. -- Regards, Pavel Roskin
